Installing VMWare Server on CentOS 5 64-bit

This is basically the same as a regular install, with the addition of step 3.  The extra libraries are for vmware-config.pl, and xinetd is required anyways.

Step 1: Download VMWare Server
wget VMware-server-1.0.3-44356.i386.rpm

Step 2: Install vmware server
rpm -ivh VMware-server-1.0.3-44356.i386.rpm

Step 3: Install required files / libraries
yum install libXtst-devel libXrender-devel xinetd

Step #4: Configure VMWARE server
vmware-config.pl
